Free Zone Alarm conflicts with Norton AV 2006

Help! I've used the free version of Zone Alarm for several years and just recently upgraded to the 2006 version of Norton Anti-Virus. Now, I cannot access Internet Explorer at all unless I disable Zone Alarm and I really don't like doing that. Can anyone help me figure out what to do here? I'm running Windows XP. Hope that's enough enough information.Mike

Mike, once NAV 2006 is opened on your desktop, click the status tab under Norton antivirus and then you will see a list of components and one of them is labeled Internet Worm Protection. Click the underlined link and then turn it off to avoid potential conflicts with ZA and NAV 2006. Please let me know if that works.

I clicked on the Norton icon on the bottom of the screen and then clicked on the "status and settings" tab in the Norton internet Security window. There is no "Internet Worm Protection" listed at all. This is a real mystery!Mike
